❓ Frequently Asked Statutory Questions (FAQ)
What is the electricity tariff charged by the Liberia Electricity Corporation (LEC)?
The Liberia Electricity Corporation (LEC), regulated by the Liberia Electricity Regulatory Commission (LERC), sets domestic residential prepaid power tariffs at approximately US$0.24 to US$0.25 per kWh, with commercial tariffs calibrated at US$0.22 to US$0.24/kWh.
Can LEC electricity tokens be purchased in Liberian Dollars (LRD)?
Yes. While LEC tariffs are benchmarked in US Dollars, consumers purchasing tokens with Liberian Dollars (LRD) have their currency converted at the prevailing official Central Bank of Liberia (CBL) exchange rate.
Is there a fixed standing charge on LEC prepaid meters?
Standard prepaid residential customers do not pay a monthly standing meter fee; billing is strictly pay-as-you-go per active kWh consumed, though commercial three-phase customers may pay capacity demand fees.
Where can consumers buy LEC prepaid tokens in Monrovia and across Liberia?
Tokens can be purchased through mobile money platforms (Lonestar Cell MTN MoMo and Orange Money), commercial bank apps, and authorized LEC vendor service centers.
What source of electricity powers the LEC grid in Liberia?
The grid is primarily powered by the Mount Coffee Hydropower Plant on the St. Paul River during the rainy season, supplemented by heavy fuel oil (HFO) thermal generators and CLSG regional interconnection imports during the dry season.
